"DAD AND I ARRIVED AT THE POINT TO DO SOME BIRDING/PICTURES GORGEOUS DAY! IT IS CLEAR, SUNNY AND QUITE MILD FOR EARLY FEBRUARY. THE RECENT WARM SPELL THIS PAST WEEK AND A HALF HAS JUST ABOUT MELTED ALL THE SNOW, SO THE ROADS ARE WET AND MUDDY. THE INLAND BAYS, PONDS AND MARSHES ARE STILL FROZEN, BUT I'D GUESS THAT ONLY A COUPLE OF INCHES OF ICE REMAIN. THE WATER LEVEL IN THE MARSH APPEARS QUITE HIGH AND MAY BE RESULT OF DNR MANAGEMENT. THE LAKE IS OPEN, AND THE UNFROZEN WATERS ARE BEGINNING TO CREEP INTO THE INLETS. ONLY A FEW RINGBILLED GULLS CAN BE SEEN OUT ON THE ICE, AND ONLY WHERE THERE IS A PATCH OF OPEN WATER IN THE ICE."
